In alphadom

----With dedication to Paddychicken-----

I want an alpha male, not just an alpha male, but an “ultra infra-red ray” (stealing a line from NP) alpha male. So what makes an alpha male so irresistible to us women, to me.

Alpha male looks like he is getting it all the time – success in career, women, respect from men, honor and etc. It seems that he doesn’t have to do anything to get the girls, he is too busy saving the world to do that. (Remember James Bond) But he is getting them all the time. There is always a beautiful woman who is draping herself around him. It makes you turn your head and wonder who is this guy, why is he not looking your way, why he is not like other guys who is willing to wait at your feet? Then while you are wondering why, he comes over and gets you. In short, he seems to be in control, he seems to be owning the world. The best part about such alpha males, you can’t get them, they come and get you.

So why do alpha males make me weak in my knees?

An alpha male makes his woman feel like a woman. He makes me feel like a woman.

He makes his woman feel beautiful and desirable. He takes an interest in everything his woman does so that he can watch out for her and appropriately come in to help her when needed. His woman calls for help, he comes in and takes charge of the situation and within minutes, everything is resolved.

If his woman takes too long in the bathroom, he sends another woman to make sure she is okay. He watches her play XXX and gives her practices so that she won’t get trashed again on the courts. No matter how busy he is, he will always spare time for his woman, even though it means working late on other nights, as long as his woman asks. He moves along with any topic his woman wants to talk about even if it is the topic that he is not familiar with. Because he is smart, a good conversationalist, he moves with ease, talks intelligently about the topic that is of no interests to him because his woman wants to talk about it. He allows his woman her little indulgences but will her to stay within boundaries. He indulges and not spoils her. He helps his woman become a better woman. He gently coaxes with the right amount of firmness so that she doesn’t feel reprimanded but feel protected because he is only looking out for her. And his woman is only too willing to listen to him because he serves her well, protects her well - he would not allow his woman to feel bad or look bad in all circumstances. He manages his woman’s expectations well – he tells his woman that he can give her that much time, the rest he has to use to save the world, so that she won’t be in an emotional distraught if he has to neglect her sometimes because of other commitments. But when you are in trouble, he will come flying to you to rescue you, then he goes back to rescue the world. He never disappoints you.

He is adored by other men and his family. His colleagues, his friends, his family love and respect him, because he protects them in the same way. He is upright, lead his life with integrity and kindness. Though he couldn’t care less about other people’s opinions, no one has a bad opinion of him. He has a quiet confidence about him and this confidence is very sexy. It usually comes from him being able to pull things together.

That is why he gets to eat his meal first because he protects the others around him.

So my silver-backed gorilla, I am all yours as long as you believe in HIM.

To those guys who are not alpha males, don’t be disheartened. Alpha males are not popular today, they are a very 70s thing. Women have since ditched Alpha males for the sensitive romantic guy who is in touch with himself.

I am surprised to read from your blog (paddychicken) that most girls like alpha males? Do they?

I thought most girls like the artistic sensitive romantic guy, who will bring her flowers, call her to tell her that he misses her, cook her a candle-lit dinner, use her name as his musings and as his source of inspirations for poems and songs that would accompany her nights.

Girls usually go “oh so sweet” when guys do stuff like that.

I, however, don’t like stuff like that. I am an old and traditional woman who prefers my alpha male from the 70s who wants to protect me.

I would hate it if my guy

1. cook for me – hey, the kitchen is my territory. I feel like a woman if I get to cook for my guy. It gives me a high. If he takes over that role, I would feel useless. No entry, please. Kitchen is mine. He just needs to eat and applaud my cooking and compliment me on how well I serve him. If he wants to have dinner with me, he will have to just bring me to a restaurant. I don’t like the idea of a man who can cook. Most women do, so I thought. I find it very un-alpha male.

2. write me a poem – My guy is supposed to sit there and listen to my poems (but I don’t write poems, i mean if I ever write) and applaud them. Even if they are bad, he has to try to hide his grimace and say “very good.” Ha!

3. Sing me a song – I don’t like guys who sings. that is so not alpha male. Alpha males don’t sing. Eeeuuuu. He just needs to protect me. No need to sing me a song because he has no time anyways. However, he must be able to lead me on the dance floor and make me look good. I find it very sexy when he can lead me and make me do moves I don’t think I could.

I am so not an alpha male. And I so didn't think ur definiation of alpha male sounded very alpha male. sounded more MCP.

Anyway, what is ur definiation of SNAG?

to R: saving the world, serving the needs of others and protect his woman is an MCP?
SNAG? sensitive new age guy - a weepy wimp? Remember Brendan Frasier from Bedeviled (not sure whether I got the name right)

To Marxx: Disaapointed? Disappointed at what? that such guys do not exist? I met Silver Back. He is there. But such alpha males are few. One per pack. In Singapore, I think there are a few only. Romance James Bond once and you will never forget. Be with someone less, you would want to ride into the sunset with the cowboys, feel like dead like Superman, contemplate being gay like Wolverine.

sounds like you could henpeck a superman to death ... let alone a poor paddychicken.

I didn't say "most", by the way. But quite a few I have encountered.

And I am very flattered ... you write long long post to answer my little question. I feel I want to write you a poem and then sing it to you.

you had just described the man of my dream! with this definition, i definitely go for alpha male. sensitive and romantic men give me the creep.

the 3 things you hate about a guy, that's so funny!!! most girls definitely go for those 3! how many weddings have you been to that the groom would sing to the bride, and everyone would be like, "ohh... so sweet..." (even though some grooms were terrible singers.) i wouldn't like my husband to sing to me in my wedding...

of the 3 things, i think i hate #3 the most. for #1, yes, i would love to cook for my man, but i wouldn't mind him to cook once in a while, (with the intention of sharing the work, not I-DO-IT-FOR-YOU-AND-I-LOVE-U.)

i thought i'm weird and extreme, my God, EB, i have found a match! LOL!
